The queen of the last days became a maid and just wanted to lie down
Chapter 41 The Duke's Wife Returns
After the two of them finished laughing, Zhang put down the teacup.
"Do you really think this is an accidental retribution?"
After these words came out, Liu Moyan and Liu Qingwan looked at each other in surprise, "Mother, do you mean that someone did this on purpose?"
Zhang smiled and said, "There are rules for when the night incense sellers come. How could it be possible that a night incense seller's carriage would pass by at that time on the road to the Duke's Mansion? Besides, the night incense sellers can only use donkey carts or ox carts at most. How can the night incense sellers afford such precious things as horses?"
The two of them suddenly realized, isn't that right?
"So, it was done by someone from the Duke's Mansion?"
Liu Qingwan thought about it and felt that this was most likely done by Master Pei.
When Liu Moyan heard this, she smiled happily: "Pei Lang is really smart."
Zhang didn't think there was anything wrong with this. When the enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers; when the water comes, we will block it with earth.
It is absolutely correct to use such means against a villain like Zhao Mingbo.
She even used this incident to teach her two daughters how to view men.
Men like Zhao Mingbo are of corrupt moral character. They must not be deceived by a few words from strange men.
As she spoke, she solemnly instructed Liu Qingwan: "You are still unmarried, and it is a good time to talk about marriage. It is inevitable that you will meet a man like this. I just want to tell you. Don't easily believe a man's lies. Listen more and watch more. If Zhao Mingbo hadn't been exposed this time, who would have known that he was such a wretch."
Looking at him in the past, who wouldn't say that he was gentle, well-educated and well-mannered?
Looking at it now, he is really not as good as his father.
Thinking of this, Zhang became even more cautious about choosing a son-in-law.
Liu Moyan couldn't help but complain coquettishly: "Mother only reminded my sister, why didn't you remind me? Aren't you afraid that I would be deceived?"
Liu Qingwan smiled meaningfully upon hearing this. Zhang glared at her and said, "Do you need me to tell you that your marriage has already been decided?"
Liu Moyan couldn't help feeling a little shy, and hurried back, making the excuse that she hadn't finished her homework yet.
After a few days of recuperation, Xu Yao finally recovered.
In her heart, she cursed the bastard who poisoned her thousands of times, and cursed him to have no children and become a eunuch.
At the same time, she felt that her body was a little special. Although she didn't know what kind of poison she was infected with, this body's reaction to the toxin was obviously beyond her expectations.
She seemed to have swallowed the poison and recovered, which shocked Xu Yao. This body could actually resist poison. This meant that she must have been fed a lot of poison in the past and her body could resist it.
Considering the way that person behaved, Xu Yao had reason to suspect that the original owner of his body belonged to some killer organization.
But when she appeared at the door of the Liu family, she was only thirteen years old, and she died at that time. This means that she became a killing machine for others at the age of thirteen.
Xu Yao cursed those people to die a horrible death and told her not to meet them again. If she did, she would make sure they would be taught a lesson.
Liu Moyan came back happily and not only told her how Pei Shuo dealt with Zhao Mingbo, but also told Xu Yao that the Duke and the Duke's wife were finally back.
"Now that the Duke's wife is back, she will definitely make the decision for Sister Pei. This marriage is cancelled."
Liu Moyan just didn't believe that Zhao Mingbo would still cling to the Duke's Mansion even though he was so humiliated.
She was so shameless that everyone in the capital would laugh at him for being greedy for power.
Xu Yao waited for her to finish sharing her happiness, and couldn't help asking, "Have you told Master Pei about Master Ma Sanye's matter?"
Liu Moyan paused, shook her head and said no.
Xu Yao pretended not to understand, "Second Madam, do you have any concerns?"
Liu Moyan: "I don't know what to say about this matter. I'll discuss it with him when I meet him tomorrow."
Xu Yao felt that she seemed to have some concerns, but since Liu Moyan refused to say it, Xu Yao couldn't force her.
She was just giving a friendly reminder and had no intention of interfering.
In the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, the first thing Mrs. Pei did when she returned was not to go to the Zhao family to seek justice for her daughter, but to take her daughter to the Big Buddha Temple.
Mrs. Zhao cursed the Pei family harshly at home and wished she could eat their flesh alive, especially Pei Shuo.
"How could the master marry such a vicious family? No, this marriage must be cancelled."
Zhao Mingbo also gave up the idea of continuing the marriage after this incident. He was so humiliated that if he continued to cling to the marriage, others would only laugh at him for being greedy for power and having no integrity.
If he wants to be an official in the future, he must not lose his integrity and be laughed at by his colleagues.
Otherwise, how could he enter the Hanlin Academy and the Cabinet?
"Mother, when will father come back?"
Speaking of this, Mrs. Zhao choked and covered him with a quilt.
Zhao Mingbo was sent back that day. Because he was splashed with more than ten buckets of cold water, he caught a cold after returning. He had a high fever all night and is still weak.
Mrs. Zhao took personal care of her son, fearing that he might get hurt. He was her only son, the apple of her eye.
If he were gone, what hope would I have for the rest of my life?
"Your father said that he will be back in a few days. He said that he will make the decision on Pei family's affairs after he comes back."
Mrs. Zhao exaggerated the matter and put the blame on the Pei family.
But Mr. Zhao's reply was very cold. He did not say that he would cancel the engagement immediately, nor did he say how the Pei family should apologize. He simply replied with three words: "I understand."
Madam Zhao felt uneasy. If her husband smiled and talked to her for a few more words, it meant that nothing was wrong.
But if he is cold and only says a few words or even nothing at all, then the matter is more serious.
Yesterday, when the old lady came home and heard about Zhao Mingbo's situation, she did not insult the Pei family, nor did she teach Zhao Mingbo a lesson. Instead, she scolded Madam Zhao severely, saying that she was not a good manager of the household and that she was shallow-minded. After all, she was born in a humble family and was therefore as stupid as a pig.
She also said that if the marriage failed, she would let her son divorce her.
Mrs. Zhao didn't dare to say anything back. She knelt for a long time before returning from the old lady's yard.
She is still worried now, but this incident has made her more determined to cancel the engagement.
The old lady has despised her for most of her life because of her background. If a woman like Madam Pei were to marry into the family again and suppress her, would she still be able to live a good life in the future?
Xu Yao thought that this matter would drag on for half a month, but he never expected that after just a few days, news came out that the two families had cancelled the engagement.
When Liu Moyan heard the news, she jumped up happily, "Is what Sister said true?"
Liu Qingwan nodded: "Of course it's true, how could I lie to you?"
"What's going on? Tell me quickly."
Zhang still doesn't allow her to go out casually, but she has relaxed her control over Liu Qingwan a little.
Liu Qingwan placed the cakes on the table and sat down in front of her. "I heard that the Duke's wife took the Madam to the temple for a walk and happened to meet Master Liaowu. When Master Liaowu saw Madam Pei, he said that she had a great disaster in her life recently."
